Can no longer sync photos to my iPod Photo

Without any change in hardware, but AFTER installing iTunes 7 via Software Update, I can no longer sync photos to my iPod. (I have had no problems syncing music, pictures, contacts and calendars since purchasing an iMac G5 "iSight" 15 months ago.)
Music appears to sync correctly, as do calendars and contacts. But after trying to sync photos, iTunes stops with the following message: "The iPod 'my iPod' could not be synced. The required file cannot be found."
I have Restored my iPod and attempted to sync, but receive the same message.
I REPLACED my iPod's hard drive! Upon syncing, I receive the same message.
I deleted iPhoto Library/iPod photo cache folder and was then able to sync photos to iPod, BUT upon reopening iPhoto, and a forced reindex (?) of pictures resulted in about 1/3 missing.
After restoring the iPhoto Library from a backup, syncing the iPod results in the same original error. Deselecting syncing photos in iTunes removes photos from iPod, but upon syncing, same error message.
Restoring iPod again, results in same error message.
Does anyone have a solution? What required file is missing?
iBook G4 1Ghz/iMac G5 iSight   Mac OS X (10.4.3)   iPod Photo 40GB
iBook G4 1Ghz/iMac G5 iSight   Mac OS X (10.4.3)   iPod Photo 40GB

I too had a problem. iTunes wouldn't sync any photos nor list my iPhoto Albums.
I created a second iPhoto library and then added some photos and created several albums to see if iTunes could see the new iPhoto library. It did see the new library. I then started to add photos to it. I finally found the offending files - 4 .avi files - that for some reason when added to the library caused iTunes to balk. I removed the files and all is well. I even have other .avi files in the original library and iTunes responds normally - just those 4 caused the problem.

  • TS1702 After installing the latest itunes, I can no longer sync Apps to my ipod touch. I have restored it to original settings and now old apps won't install please help.

    My ipod touch will no longer sync apps since I downloaded the new Itunes. I have restored it to original setting in hopes that would work, but now I have lost all my apps and even old ones will no longer sync. Can anyone help?

    What model iPod do you have? If yo have a 2G iPod. many developers when they updated their apps to support iOS 5 and 6 dropped compatibility for iOS 4.2.1 and earlier.

  • IPod Classic 120GB - Can No Longer Sync & Songs Gone From IPOD

    This morning I go sync my iPod and it start giving me some error messages then completely stops. I tried unplugging and plugging the iPod back in. The iPod connects to the computer but will not show up on iTunes. I tried resetting to no prevail. I can't restore the iPod since it will not come up on iTunes. I had just recently downloaded the most recent version of iTunes.
    A few things I have found.
    - When tried accessing the music folder (IPod_Control>Music) it gives me the following error message: *"E:\iPod_Control\Music is not accessible, The parameter is incorrect"*
    - When iTunes starts up and tries to sync with the iPod, the Autplay box comes up but can never find the files its looking for
    - The music on my iPod looks as if it is gone (the music section says there is no music, same for pictures/video), but checking the properties of the iPod, it shows 10MB taken up which is how much music I had on there before this started happening.
    It sounds like I have double the problems here but wanted to see if anyone might know what's going on. I have tried reading some other posts to figure this out but my mind can only work so far wih this kind of stuff.

    I have the same problem with my ipod nano. I downloaded tunes from my old pc. ITunes does not recognise it from my new pc and I cannot sync.

  • Can no longer sync Photos from Airport Disk

    I can no longer sync photos from my Airport Disk to my tv.
    This used to work fine- When I first got the tv I checked the "sync photos from" option in the photos tab in iTunes, navigated to my network drive/ pictures folder and hit sync. The photos slowly copied over.
    Just this week however, I went to add some new pictures and iTunes/ tv no longer sync. The status bar just spins saying "Syncing"...I have left it overnight with no change.
    I have recently updated to the latest version of iTunes and Airport Extreme firmware, but that is about it in terms of changes/updates. Anyone have any ideas?
    - Firewall is off
    - Permissions seem ok on the Airpot Disk. Everything is read/write
    - I have rebooted/ reset/ re-synced everything. It just hangs on Photos. Music etc go over fine.
    Specs:
    iMac G5 PowerPC
    Airport Extreme N base station with OWC USB drive attached as airDisk
    tv 1.0 40 gig - using ethernet connection to router
    iTunes 7.4.2
    I am really stumped! I think that the airport disk permissions or mount are still suspect but dont know what else to check.
    Does iTunes spit out a log or write to the console? Any help would be very much appreciated.
    Thanks,
    AC

    I think I have figured it out, and photos are syncing now.
    Here is what I believe happened: There is an iTunes generated folder called "iPod Photo Cache" in my "Pictures" folder on my Airpot Disk. This folder gets generated by iTunes whenever you designate a location for syncing. The "iPod Photo Cache" folder contains a file called "Photo Database".
    It looks like the "Photo Database" had been corrupted. Deleting this file, or alternatively, moving my pictures to a new folder and letting iTunes regenerate the Photo Database fixed the problem.

  • Since recent flurry of updates, all of which I applied, I can no longer sync photos to my iOS6 devices. Any thoughts

    Since recent flurry of updates, all of which I applied, I can no longer sync photos to my iOS6 devices.
    iTunes sync error at the photo sync step with an unknown error 1140.
    I have restarted everything, unsynced & attempted re sync to no avail.
    The photo sync screen only allows me to select the sync all option, the select specific events, albums etc . Choice is greyed out.
    This is true for both my iPhone 4S and ipad2.

  • Can no longer sync Ipod.

    I was syncing my ipod after adding some new things to my library and it told me that there wasn't enough space on my ipod, should it create a playlist and just sync that instead.
    I clicked yes not really playing much attention, and then after looking at the playlist it was syncing realised that I didn't want it to do tat as some of my favourtie songs might not have ended up on my ipod, so I deleted the playlist. Now I can no longer sync my ipod at all as a message comes up saying something about it not being able to sync as not all playlists are present.
    How can I fix this? I go on holiday on Friday with my dad I need my ipod!!

    as a message comes up saying something about it not being able to sync as not all playlists are present.
    Here's one way around that. First, in itunes, work out what plylists you want to synch to the iPod and/or create additional playlists containg the material you want to sync to the iPod.
    Now plug in the iPod. When it connects, in iTunes click on the Music tab for the iPod. Under "Sync Music" you will currently have "selected playlists" selected.
    In the list of playlists beneath that, deselect the playlists that you deleted earlier, and select the playlists that you do want to sync to the iPod. Then click the "Apply" button.

  • Can no longer sync photos from iPhoto to my iPad or iPhone

    I can no longer sync from iTunes to my iPad or iPhone if I want to sync photos from iPhoto.  I keep getting the following error:
    "The iPad "XXXXXXXXXX" cannot be synced because it cannot be read from or written to."
    If I choose not to sync photos everthing works fine.

    I had a similar problem only neither my iPad nor my iPhone would sync and I was getting error 1106.
    I looked it up and it said delete the iphoto cache, which I did and I also turned of syncing photos.
    Now when I turn on SYNC PHOTOS FROM, the choice of Select albums........ is greyed out and cannot be clicked.
    I don't want to sync my entire set of photos.

  • So I have a gen2 8gig iPod touch and just the other day updated to 4.3 and now my pod wont show up in iTunes. Is it not compatible? Does this mean I can no longer sync my iPod??

    I can no longer sync my iPod as it does not show up in my iTunes anymore, is this because I upgraded my Itunes??

    You should still be able to sync you iPod.  Your iPod just can be updated past iOS 4.2.1.
    Assuming you have a PC, start her to get your computer to see the iPod.
